THE NEW SCHOOL COMMISSIONERS.
Result Of the Election Yesterday in the Fifth,
Sixth and Ninth Districts.

The election of school com missoners yester-
day in the Fifth, Sixth and Ninth districts was
noticeable only in the little interest manifested.
Even people in the districts concerned were in
different. and the candidates themselves, except
in an instance or two, did not appear to be vast
ing much anxiety over the voting. For an hour
more after the polls were opened JACOB W.
Loeper, in the Sixth district, thought he had
the race to himself, but he found that votes were
going away from him. After o while Robert A.
KIstner came in avowed competitor He
gave the Loeper workers something to fight for.
and until late in the afternoon the contest was
considered doubtful by some. although John
Frenzel and others not of the district worked
energetcaIly for Loeper, and claimed his
election by large majority. This claim was
assured before the polls closed. and the counting
showed that the Loeper faction had the best of
it by 168 votes. In the Flft district the contest
was lively between three candidates. but John
GaIvin's friends were more mum ar GUS than those
OF his competitors. Alderman Rail and the late
superintendent OF police. Michael ODonnel, led
the Calvin faction. J. J. Bingham was not
candidate in the sense in which that term is
derstood If the people of the district desired to
have him run again he Was willing, but he made
no effort to control votes in his behalf In the
Ninth district Clemens Vonnegut had no opposi-
ton but his friends late in the day were disturbed
at the easy race They feared a scheme
being concocted to defeat him by bringing out
competitor when it would be too late to recover
lost ground up to o'clock only seventytwo
votes bad been cast. Ben Rogers was the pros
pective dark horse, but if his friends had any
intention to put him up. they abandoned the
plan.
The result of the voting was follows

YOKOHAMA, Oct Is, 1857.
ME. WEIR. Dedr Sir:-I have not
sent you a communication for some
time. for two reasons: 1st, Because
my time has been occupied in assist
ing in the preparation of a book for
the press. ID. Because | have felt
not little disappointed at the non
receipt Of orders ior japanese goods
from your merchants. Considerable
pains We're taken in purchasing and
forwarding the case of samples. 1t
was hoped that the effort to initiate
direct commerce with your city and
this country would receive encour-
agement from your citizens. Mr..
Kahn wrote me that several persons
would make orders if the goods
could be sent to them previous to
payment That would be expecting
two much from Japanese merchants.
Among themselves they deal on the
cash principle. Foreign merchants
in japan also pay cash for goods
bought from Japanese. The credit
system Will not prevail here till there

with |. $. Consular certificate to the
same, be presented. The goods can
be insured here in one of the many
insurance agencies.
Should | be asked to purchase and
forward goods, | would promptly do
so for a reasonable compensation. |
have asked that samples Of Washing
ton Territory products be sent here,
but none have reached me. Will you
not speak with your leading mer-
chants and learn their views about
direct trade with this country? If
they be disposed to engage in it, |
should be glad to be of service to
them; but if they will not take hold
of it, may as well make no further
efforts in the matter SO far as relates
to your city. [ am sure thaty you will
favor an enterprise which, if made
successful, will not only benefit yom
city, but be a credit TO American in
terests in these foreign lands.
Can you not induce one of yOm
firms, ut least, to open up trade with
this country? Let them give 1t u fair
